Small but beautiful during the holidays with lights. Good play area for the kids , neat and clean. Parking is limited, street parking, metered.

While heading to my dinner location in the downtown Doral, I saw this park just a couple of blocks from the restaurant and thought it would be perfect for a walk after dinner, and I wasn’t wrong, it was great. The park is just a block or two away from the restaurant strip at the downtown Doral and it’s perfect to stretch your legs after dinner as well as enjoy the 2 pieces of art at the park. The one that looks like a cave and the lady in metal adorned with the butterflies. The 2 of them are beautiful. The park also has playgrounds, should you have a kid. All in all, it was a nice find.
